Visitation only possible in the context of a tour, but worth it - if the group is not too large (see marksburg.de/informationen/). Therefore, best not to go to peak times. Taking pictures is allowed (without a tripod - there would be no time for it during the tour), but films are forbidden.

From the 12th century, the only hilltop castle on the Middle Rhine that has never been destroyed.
It is worth taking a tour. As far as we know, it is also possible with a dog (at least it used to be that way, we had a sheepdog with us).
We have been to the castle several times, it was always an experience.
The castle is currently closed due to the corona.

The only, never destroyed medieval hill fort. It sits enthroned on a 160m high slate cone (Wikipedia). At the castle there is a self-service restaurant.
